The disagreement has attracted attention online, with the former couple once again finding themselves at the centre of public discussion over their responsibilities as parents.Triza reportedly raised concerns through social media, questioning Karangu’s involvement in meeting some of the children’s needs. Her comments sparked reactions from their followers, many of whom have continued to follow the former couple’s complicated relationship.
One of the issues at the centre of the latest disagreement is the payment of school fees.Karangu has since pushed back against the claims, maintaining that he has continued to take responsibility for his children. He appeared to challenge those questioning his commitment as a father to provide evidence for their accusations.The musician’s response came as screenshots of what appeared to be financial transactions involving school fees circulated on social media.
One of the screenshots reportedly showed a payment of KSh10,500 to a school account. The transaction was shared online by people seeking to demonstrate that Karangu had contributed towards his children’s education.However, the circulation of the screenshots has not completely settled the disagreement. Instead, it has generated more discussion among Kenyans, with different sides interpreting the developments differently.
The latest dispute is not the first time Karangu and Triza have publicly disagreed about family matters.The two have previously experienced highly publicised challenges in their relationship, with their separation becoming a subject of discussion among their followers. Their disagreements have at times involved parenting, financial responsibilities and their respective roles in the lives of their children.
Despite their differences, both remain connected through their children, making their relationship particularly sensitive.The latest exchange has also sparked a wider conversation about co-parenting among public figures. Some social media users have urged the two to resolve their disagreements privately and keep matters concerning their children away from the public.
Others have defended Karangu, arguing that financial support should be judged by actual contributions rather than social media accusations. At the same time, some users have sympathised with Triza and called for greater clarity concerning the responsibilities of both parents.
For Karangu, the latest controversy comes at a time when his activities on social media continue to attract significant public attention. His charitable work and personal life have made him a familiar figure among Kenyans, meaning that statements involving his family often generate considerable discussion.
The situation involving Triza also demonstrates how quickly private family disagreements can become public when social media is involved.For now, Karangu and Triza appear to have different perspectives on the issue, while their children’s welfare remains at the heart of the discussion.
As the conversation continues, many of their followers will be watching to see whether the two can put their differences aside and focus on maintaining a peaceful co-parenting relationship for the sake of their children.
